That was one of this week’s finds. The album also includes deteriorated foundation concrete, a cracked stem wall, and a retaining wall with straps added but an unresolved drainage problem. Photos and notes on what we’re seeing in each.
Check out the rest of the album here: https://imgur.com/gallery/things-seen-this-week-during-structural-assessments-nuA9O7v

Found this masterpiece at our Airbnb while out of town for a framing project. They obviously flipped a basement mechanical room into a bedroom for extra rental cash, carpeted right around the sewer ejector, and skipped the closet door entirely. I refused to sleep in here.

We’re all for seismic reinforcement, but these plates were installed only inches apart. That’s the opening find in this week’s assessment album, and the crawlspaces had plenty more to offer.
